However, the relatively easy availability of data collected via platform application programming interfaces has arguably led to the predominance of single-platform research of social media. Such research has also privileged the role of text in social media analysis, as a form of data that is more readily gathered and searchable than images. In this paper, we challenge both of these prevailing forms of social media research by outlining a methodology for visual cross-platform analysis (VCPA), defined as the study of still and moving images across two or more social media platforms. Our argument contains three steps. First, we argue that cross-platform analysis addresses a gap in research methods in that it acknowledges the interplay between a social phenomenon under investigation and the medium within which it is being researched, thus illuminating the different affordances and cultures of web platforms. Second, we build on the literature on multimodal communication and platform vernacular to provide a rationale for incorporating the visual into cross-platform analysis. Third, we reflect on an experimental cross-platform analysis of images within social media posts (n = 471,033) used to communicate climate change to advance different modes of macro- and meso-levels of analysis that are natively visual: image-text networks, image plots and composite images. We conclude by assessing the research pathways opened up by VCPA, delineating potential contributions to empirical research and theory and the potential impact on practitioners of social media communication.}, language = {en} } @misc{DvornikovLeibmanHeimetal.2018, author = {Dvornikov, Yury and Leibman, Marina and Heim, Birgit and Bartsch, Annett and Herzschuh, Ulrike and Skorospekhova, Tatiana and Fedorova, Irina and Khomutov, Artem and Widhalm, Barbara and Gubarkov, Anatoly and R{\"o}ßler, Sebastian}, title = {Terrestrial CDOM in lakes of Yamal Peninsula}, series = {Zweitver{\"o}ffentlichungen der Universit{\"a}t Potsdam : Mathematisch-Naturwissenschaftliche Reihe}, journal = {Zweitver{\"o}ffentlichungen der Universit{\"a}t Potsdam : Mathematisch-Naturwissenschaftliche Reihe}, number = {1333}, issn = {1866-8372}, doi = {10.25932/publishup-45972}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-459720}, pages = {21}, year = {2018}, abstract = {In this study, we analyze interactions in lake and lake catchment systems of a continuous permafrost area. We assessed colored dissolved organic matter (CDOM) absorption at 440 nm (a(440)(CDOM)) and absorption slope (S300-500) in lakes using field sampling and optical remote sensing data for an area of 350 km(2) in Central Yamal, Siberia. Applying a CDOM algorithm (ratio of green and red band reflectance) for two high spatial resolution multispectral GeoEye-1 and Worldview-2 satellite images, we were able to extrapolate the a()(CDOM) data from 18 lakes sampled in the field to 356 lakes in the study area (model R-2 = 0.79). Values of a(440)(CDOM) in 356 lakes varied from 0.48 to 8.35 m(-1) with a median of 1.43 m(-1). This a()(CDOM) dataset was used to relate lake CDOM to 17 lake and lake catchment parameters derived from optical and radar remote sensing data and from digital elevation model analysis in order to establish the parameters controlling CDOM in lakes on the Yamal Peninsula. Regression tree model and boosted regression tree analysis showed that the activity of cryogenic processes (thermocirques) in the lake shores and lake water level were the two most important controls, explaining 48.4\% and 28.4\% of lake CDOM, respectively (R-2 = 0.61). Activation of thermocirques led to a large input of terrestrial organic matter and sediments from catchments and thawed permafrost to lakes (n = 15, mean a(440)(CDOM) = 5.3 m(-1)). Large lakes on the floodplain with a connection to Mordy-Yakha River received more CDOM (n = 7, mean a(440)(CDOM) = 3.8 m(-1)) compared to lakes located on higher terraces.}, language = {en} } @misc{LohwasserBraunMusiletal.2018, author = {Lohwaßer, Roswitha and Braun, Claudia and Musil, Andreas and Kludt, Steffen and Schroeder, Christoph and Jostes, Brigitte and Kortenkamp, Ulrich and Goetz, Ilka and R{\"u}diger, Marie and Hackel, Manuela and Brzezinski, Jan and Polziehn, Tabea and Faulian, Ariane and Goral, Johanna and Wendland, Mirko and Zurek, Peter Paul and Nyagolova, Maya}, title = {Kentron : Journal zur Lehrerbildung = Durchstarten}, number = {32}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}t Potsdam, Zentrum f{\"u}r Lehrerbildung}, address = {Potsdam}, issn = {1867-4720}, doi = {10.25932/publishup-59039}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-590394}, pages = {43}, year = {2018}, language = {de} } @misc{Kolls2018, type = {Master Thesis}, author = {Kolls, Ronja Clara}, title = {Intertextualit{\"a}t in deutschen Rap-Texten und ihr didaktischer Nutzen f{\"u}r den Deutschunterricht}, doi = {10.25932/publishup-53417}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-534171}, school = {Universit{\"a}t Potsdam}, pages = {68}, year = {2018}, abstract = {Der Fokus der Arbeit liegt auf Texten des Genres Deutschrap.

ECs derived from human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) represent an alternative and potentially superior cell source, but traditional culture approaches and 2D differentiation protocols hardly allow for production of large cell numbers.

Recent studies on Bayesian sensorimotor control have implicated midbrain dopamine concentration in the integration of prior knowledge and current sensory information. The present behavioral study addressed the contributions of tonic and phasic dopamine in a Bayesian decision-making task by alternating reward magnitude and inferring reward prediction errors. Twenty-four participants were asked to indicate the position of a hidden target stimulus under varying prior and likelihood uncertainty. Trial-by-trial rewards were allocated based on performance and two different reward maxima. Overall, participants' behavior agreed with Bayesian decision theory, but indicated excessive reliance on likelihood information. These results thus oppose accounts of statistically optimal integration in sensorimotor control, and suggest that the sensorimotor system is subject to additional decision heuristics. Moreover, higher reward magnitude was not observed to induce enhanced response vigor, and was associated with less Bayes-like integration. In addition, the weighting of prior knowledge and current sensory information proceeded independently of reward prediction errors. Taken together, these findings suggest that the process of combining prior and likelihood uncertainties in sensorimotor control is largely robust to variations in reward.}, language = {en} } @misc{Roschinsky2018, type = {Master Thesis}, author = {Roschinsky, Diane}, title = {Thomas Morus: Utopia}, series = {Copia - Potsdamer Anregungen f{\"u}r den Lateinunterricht}, volume = {2021}, journal = {Copia - Potsdamer Anregungen f{\"u}r den Lateinunterricht}, number = {1}, editor = {Forst, Alexandra}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}tsverlag Potsdam}, address = {Potsdam}, issn = {2748-6621}, doi = {10.25932/publishup-50468}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-504686}, school = {Universit{\"a}t Potsdam}, pages = {160}, year = {2018}, abstract = {In Thomas Morus' Utopia wird intensiv {\"u}ber die in einem idealen Staat herrschenden Verh{\"a}ltnisse nachgedacht.

Both are relatives of Lisp, but Forth has a reverse Polish notation where as Logo has an infix notation. Logo allows top down programming, Forth only bottom up. Logo enables recursive programming, Forth does not. Logo includes turtle graphics, Forth has nothing comparable. So what to do if you can't get Logo and have no information about its inner architecture? This should be a case of "empirical modelling": How can you model observable results of the behaviour of Logo in terms of Forth? The main steps to solve this problem are shown in the first part of the paper. The second part of the paper discusses the problem of modelling and shows that the modelling of making and the modelling of recognition have the same mathematical structure. So "empirical modelling" can also serve for modelling desired behaviour of technical systems. The last part of the paper will show that the heuristic potential of a problem which should be modeled is more important than the programming language.

Today, the globally averaged AHF is negligibly small compared to the indirect forcing from greenhouse gas emissions. Locally or regionally, though, it has a significant impact. Historical observations show a constant exponential growth of worldwide energy production. A continuation of this trend might be fueled or even amplified by the exploration of new carbon-free energy sources like fusion power. In such a scenario, the impacts of the AHF become a relevant factor for anthropogenic post-greenhouse gas climate change on the global scale, as well. This master thesis aims at estimating the climate impacts of such a growing AHF forcing. In the first part of this work, the AHF is built into simple and conceptual, zero- and one-dimensional Energy Balance Models (EBMs), providing quick order of magnitude estimations of the temperature impact. In the one-dimensional EBM, the ice-albedo feedback from enhanced ice melting due to the AHF increases the temperature impact significantly compared to the zero-dimensional EBM. Additionally, the forcing is built into a climate model of intermediate complexity, CLIMBER-3α. This allows for the investigation of the effect of localised AHF and gives further insights into the impact of the AHF on processes like the ocean heat uptake, sea ice and snow pattern changes and the ocean circulation. The global mean temperature response from the AHF today is of the order of 0.010 - 0.016 K in all reasonable model configurations tested. A transient tenfold increase of this forcing heats up the Earth System additionally by roughly 0.1 - 0.2 K in the presented models. Further growth can also affect the tipping probability of certain climate elements. Most renewable energy sources do not or only partially contribute to the AHF forcing as the energy from these sources dissipates anyway. Hence, the transition to a (carbon-free) renewable energy mix, which, in particular, does not rely on nuclear power, eliminates the local and global climate impacts from the increasing AHF forcing, independent of the growth of energy production.}, language = {en} }
